This legislation would reform Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act and other aspects of surveillance under the Foreign Intelligence and Surveillance Act #FISA in order to protect Americans’ civil liberties and rights to due process and to increase transparency and oversight. #ampFW
Given the long history of recent government surveillance abuses, Section 215 should under no circumstances be reauthorized without major reforms. #ampFW
Sec. 215/USA PATRIOT Act created major due process, privacy concerns.

Allowed intelligence agencies to demand groups of records on Americans at a legal standard FAR below #4A protections against unauthorized search/seizures, which ought to require probable cause warrant. #ampFW
This bill is not a comprehensive fix for all of the problems that have been revealed about the government’s use of surveillance authorities against Americans, but it is a major improvement and our 4th Amendment would be in much better shape for it. #ampFW
